Many projects and initiatives, also within the scope of Solidarity City, describe themselves as “self-organized”. But what exactly does it mean to organise oneself?
First and foremost, it is about creating equal rather than hierarchical structures. This means that decisions are made by all those who are affected by them. In a short input we will introduce you to further basic principles and forms of self-organization – and some “tools” that can help us to build and keep self-organized structures alive. With the help of (your) examples, we will put the whole thing into practice and discuss successes and difficulties of self-organisation.
With this we want to follow up the discussion of the last meeting, which we dedicated to the topic of district work and Transformative Organizing. But in order to get other people mobilized for a cause, we first have to organise ourselves. Therefore, on 31st January, we will turn our attention to our exising structures. Gradually we can thus make Kassel a city of solidarity and ecology.
